I have enjoyed providing psychotherapy for over twenty years. I currently maintain a private practice in Peachtree Corners/Norcross, Georgia where I work with individuals, couples, and families in both Korean and English languages. I offer both short and long-term psychotherapy depending on client need. Some people find just a few sessions helpful to resolve an issue while others choose to explore long-standing patterns and struggles over a more extended period of time.

I enjoy helping overfunctioners live a more balanced life. Another way to think of it is if you struggle with perfectionism and overachieving to the point of stress/exhaustion or anxiety/depression, I can help you learn to love and accept yourself as you are and be okay with using self-care and asking for help when you need it! I am also passionate about working with teens preparing for or adjusting to college and helping people manage tough life transitions, overcome self-criticism, learn when and how to say ‘no’ (set boundaries) so that you can start saying ‘yes’ to yourself, and work through past traumas.

What's most important today is that you've decided to take the first step in seeking help. Therapy is not an easy journey - it may require you to face a part of yourself that may bring up an array of painful emotions. At the same time, therapy can also be a liberating journey - it may help you break the patterns that have been holding you hostage for so long. I will try my best to create a safe and trusting space so that you can feel supported and empowered in this growing process.

If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, feelings of worthlessness, difficulty controlling your anger, unable to concentrate, and/or having relationship issues, let's determine if we would be a good "fit" to work towards your healing. I believe that counseling should be a safe and nurturing space that is built upon trust, empathy, and non-judgment. I treat each person as a unique individual, who is worthy of unconditional acceptance, regardless of their personal circumstances, beliefs and struggles.

Life presents each of us with our own unique experiences, and with that, our own set of issues, needs, and goals. It's important to know that we are all fallible human beings, who are not bound by our past. As such, we should not allow our past to control our future. I believe that we are capable of learning how our past experiences influence our current thoughts and behaviors, thus allowing for space to create new patterns in the process.

I view my clients as fellow human beings in search of some type of change. For one reason or another, they feel stuck or unable to get where they want. Together we work towards growth by identifying the issues involved, establishing hopes and goals, and increasing awareness of recurring patterns that maintain dysfunction. I find that often these patterns were somehow adaptive, but are now "outdated" for life's current situation. As awareness of one's desires, perceptions, fears, and strengths increase, doors often begin to open. There are more options and more opportunities for change and connection with others.

Psychodynamic Therapists

Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?

Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.

How long does psychodynamic therapy last?

Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.

Does psychodynamic therapy work?

Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.

What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?

Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
